The potential for the hard drive to fail can happen with any computer. With laptops, this is especially the case due to their portable nature and limited protection. Replacing the hard drive is a useful skill in extending the lifespan of your laptop as well as maintaining storage space. In this guide, we will demonstrate how to replace the hard drive in a Dell G3 3590 (2019). No specialized skills are required for this replacement.

    • Remove the hard drive from the hard drive bracket.

    • Add the new hard drive into the hard drive bracket.

Abschluss

Once you’ve inserted the new hard drive into the hard drive bracket, reassembling the device can be done by reversing the instructions back to step one. You should hear clicks when you put the base cover back. The clicks ensure that the base cover is secured to the laptop. After this, start up the laptop and ensure it properly starts up.
